The weather stayed cool this spring but by mid may the alpacas were ready for shearing. The clipping crew arrived on a rainy Tuesday morning and were all done by 1:00. The ‘girls’ were all out rolling around in their dirt patches enjoying fur freedom.

I’ve been spending more time in the studio since closing the gallery and planning for fall art fairs. Needing some good photos for publicity and my website I enlisted the talented Rebecca Gerrard from Full Circle Creative Works to shoot me. She spent a sunny afternoon with me and we had a bunch of fun. She made my ‘guys’ look first class.
